I suspect that Russell's problem is really just that he sent his
"subscribe" message to the wrong e-mail address...

[email-masked] is th e-mail address for joining/leaving
lists, whilst [email-masked] is the list itself (anything
you send to it gets e-mail to all the other members of the list).

So I believe you want to send a message to

	[email-masked]

saying

	subscribe pine-info

The Majordomo software will deduce your e-mail address and name from the
content of the headers of your message.

For more details about subscribing see:

	http://www.cac.washington.edu/pine/pine-info/subscribing.html

Note that the Pine-Info mailing list is bi-directionally gatewayed to the
comp.mail.pine Usenet News group.  So if you prefer reading the articles
through News rather than having them delivered to your mailbox you can do
so.

Cheers,
